Texas eliminates annual vehicle safety inspections and paper license plates.
TL;DR
Texas Governor Greg Abbott signed a bill into law that eliminates the requirement for annual safety inspections for vehicles beginning in 2025, but residents in the state's 17 most-populous counties will still be required to complete annual emissions inspections. The annual fees for all drivers will still be in place, with funds going towards the Texas mobility fund, the clean air fund, and the state's general revenue.
